Older and Wiser

Today is my birthday so I am one year older and hopefully another year wiser. Though the wiser party is questionable, since I hardly feel more then 21. To celebrate this lovely event. I went to church, where I was greeted with a few friendly "Happy Birthday" hellos, came home to clean house fix lunch, and bake my cake. Clean up lunch, fix dinner for guests (Grams & Gramps) and frost the cake. We played a few kid board games to celebrate. Then it was time for dinner with Grams, Gramps, hubby, and kids and then cake with Mom and Dad, Audrey and Jason and the rest of the group. Here I received cards and a present and a promise from my sister to take me to see the new movie Julie and Julia.

By far the biggest surprise was that a friend of mine from church showed up in the later part of the afternoon with a present for me. It was so thoughtful. I really liked it as well.

The best part was being with my family.

What I liked the most was that I didn't have to clean up the kitchen mess after lunch because the Scout Master did that.

Doesn't look like much but it tasted good!

Me on my Birthday (with my sister).

Oh, did I tell you that I found my first honest to goodness wrinkle? I did on my anniversary. I was applying my makeup and was smiling. When I stopped smiling a line from my eye to my cheek stayed. I vowed to never smile or laugh again so as to stop that pesky wrinkle in its tracks. You can see that didn't last long!
